"Dao... Dao Fanatic?" the cultivator exclaimed in surprise, "You're that madwoman Han Yan'er..."
Buzz--!
A flash of starlight, and the cultivator, his face pale, touched his mouth. His upper and lower lips were gone, and he immediately let out a wail.
The other cultivators all stared at Han Yan'er in horror, silent as cicadas in winter, not daring to even breathe loudly.
Han Yan'er glanced at the wailing cultivator and said, "You spoke rudely; this is a lesson. Next time, you'll lose your life."
Everyone stared at Han Yan'er in utter shock, then exchanged bewildered glances and wisely kept their mouths shut.
What a joke! In front of Dao Fanatic, no amount of words can withstand being slashed down by his sword.
Han Yan'er turned around, glanced up in the direction of Flower Countenance Mountain, and murmured to herself, "Will you go?"
Behind Han Yan'er, a group of people exchanged horrified glances, fully understanding the meaning behind Han Yan'er's words.
Is Yang Zhen going to Flower Countenance Mountain?
How could this be? Countless cultivators are heading towards Flower Countenance Mountain. Even people from the North Maiden Academy, Spirit Learning Palace, and Ink Pool Peak have come after hearing the news. Countless Tribulation Transcendence Realm experts have gathered here to ask Rogue Person Lu You for Yang Zhen's whereabouts. Even if Yang Zhen had the guts of a bear and the courage of a leopard, he wouldn't dare to appear at Flower Countenance Mountain at this time.
And this Dao Fanatic is too amazing. She's only at the Spirit Wandering Realm stage, but her realm is ridiculously high. She took down so many Spirit Wandering State experts without saying a word, almost one sword at a time. If she hadn't been without any killing intent, none of the Spirit Wandering State experts present would have been able to leave this place.
As Dao Fanatic leaped into the air, his dazzlingly long legs landing on the flying sword, and he rode towards Flower Countenance Mountain, everyone gasped.
"Have you all discerned the true level of this Daoist Dao Fanatic's cultivation?"
The group exchanged bewildered glances, shaking their heads. "It's terrifying," they said. "I have almost no chance of winning against her; it's like facing the might of heaven itself."
"It's said that this Dao Fanatic taught a lesson to every cultivator who talked about Yang Zhen along the way. He's a madman, just like Yang Zhen, that madman."
"Did Yang Zhen really destroy the Heaven and Earth Shackles with a single sword strike? But... but it seems that the True Essence in the world is surging. The destruction of the Heaven and Earth Shackles is clearly a good thing, so why are so many people..."
"Shh, be quiet. This is not a matter for cultivators like you and me to discuss."
"That's right. You and I can both sense the changes in the True Essence of heaven and earth. How could those Tribulation Transcendence Realm experts not sense them? Most of them just see through it but don't say anything. Their desire to ask Rogue Person Lu You for the person is nothing more than coveting what's on Yang Zhen's body."
" The Nine-Step Heaven-Ascending Token?"
"..."
For a moment, everyone fell silent, exchanging bewildered glances, all revealing expressions of utter dread.
Possessing a treasure is a crime!
At this moment, a strange pair appeared before everyone, and everyone looked on in surprise.
A carefree teenager, a two-legged cat, and a flamboyant chicken.
Such an unusual combination is bound to attract attention.
However, at this moment, almost all the experts at the Spirit Wandering State were seriously injured and barely able to protect themselves, so their expressions changed in unison.
Fortunately, the boy only had the cultivation level of the Spirit Wandering Realm, and the two pets didn't even have a trace of aura. Most people breathed a sigh of relief.
Only a few people suddenly turned pale, staring at the boy with horror, making tickling sounds, which aroused dissatisfaction among the crowd.
Damn it, if it itches, just scratch it yourself, what are you even talking about?
"Hey kid, there's a group of people up ahead, they look injured?"
The Shameless Cat, walking on two legs, looked incredibly cocky. Seeing a group of people lying haphazardly on the ground ahead, it exclaimed in surprise.
Yang Zhen was also taken aback and said in confusion, "These people are seriously injured. Could there have been a robbery here, or did they fight each other over the loot?"
The Shameless Cat chuckled and exchanged a glance with Yang Zhen, leaving Flirtatious Chicken completely bewildered.
"One, two, three!" Yang Zhen and the Shameless Cat shouted in unison, hands on their hips, pointing at the group of Spirit Wandering State experts lying motionless on the ground. "Robbery!"
Robbery?
Hearing Yang Zhen and the Shameless Cat's words, everyone was stunned, their expressions changing rapidly, almost to the point of having a heart attack from anger.
They had just encountered a Dao Fanatic, fanatical Daoist who started a fight at the drop of a hat, and now they'd run into a robber. To make matters worse, this robber was only a cultivator in the Spirit Wandering Realm. Normally, almost anyone standing here could have made this robber question his very existence.
Life has no "what ifs," so while everyone present was grim-faced and gritted their teeth, there was nothing they could do. However, as they looked at each other, they were all prepared to fight to the death to teach Yang Zhen a lesson.
Everyone was exchanging glances, hoping to catch Yang Zhen Yang Zhen guard and deliver a fatal blow. However, when they saw the people who kept saying "itchy, itchy, itchy," they were all stunned.
"Robbery!" Yang Zhen and the Shameless Cat approached the group and spoke again.
Those who were constantly itching suddenly threw out their storage rings, which rolled and landed at Yang Zhen's feet.
The other cultivators initially thought these people had thrown some kind of hidden weapon and were about to make a move when they saw what it was. They were completely dumbfounded and turned to look at the group with their mouths agape, utterly bewildered.
"Oh my, quite self-aware!" The Shameless Cat cackled, looking at Yang Zhen with a smug expression, and said, "Kid, do you see? My reputation has grown to this extent."
Yang Zhen curled his lip. "Damn it, don't you have any idea whose reputation you're talking about?"
As he spoke, Yang Zhen bent down to pick up all the storage rings, then asked the pale-faced cultivators whose lips were trembling, "Fellow Daoists, who is so ruthless as to injure you like this? Don't worry, this ' Sage of Saunter' has been wandering the martial world for many years, and I have no complaints about upholding justice. Tell me who it is, and this ' Sage of Saunter' will stand up for you!"
Upon hearing the title "This Sage of Saunter," most of the Spirit Wandering State cultivators, who were still dumbfounded, suddenly changed their expressions, and another batch of storage rings flew towards Yang Zhen.
The remaining cultivators were even more bewildered, looking at the surrounding cultivators with disbelief. They exchanged glances, but they knew that Yang Zhen was not someone to be trifled with. Although they were unwilling, they took out their storage rings.
The young cultivator, who was constantly itching, forced a wry smile and stood up, saying, " Yang Zhen, we have no past grudges or present animosity. I've already given you the storage ring, so please let us go!"
"What?"
The remaining cultivators who were still observing all changed their expressions drastically, hurriedly taking off their storage rings and throwing them to Yang Zhen.
At the same time, almost everyone started cursing under their breath.
Damn it! I should have checked the almanac before I went out today. Meeting a Dao Fanatic was annoying enough, but I didn't expect to run into Yang Zhen too.
Countless cultivators rushed towards Flower Countenance Mountain, trying to find Yang Zhen, but Yang Zhen brazenly robbed them from behind. What kind of nonsense is this?!
"Of course, of course!" Yang Zhen nodded with great satisfaction. "I'm still curious, how did you get injured?"
"It is... the Dao Fanatic!"
"What?" Yang Zhen and the Shameless Cat exchanged a glance, then stared at the cultivator and asked, " Little Dao Addict went to Flower Countenance Mountain?"
"Not only did Dao Fanatic go, but Spirit Maiden Hua and Spirit Maiden Mo also went."
Yang Zhen was taken aback. What were they all doing there? Did they really think that this Sage of Saunter would go to that godforsaken place?
The Shameless Cat's eyes darted around excitedly. "Kid, how about we go cause some trouble at Flower Countenance Mountain?"
"Get lost!" Yang Zhen glared at him. "Go by yourself if you want to. Damn it, there's definitely a bunch of the Tribulation Transcendence Realm experts there."
The Shameless Cat chuckled maliciously, "Do you want to transcend this tribulation as soon as possible?"
"You have a solution?" Yang Zhen's eyes lit up.
"You can't go wrong by listening to this Sage of Saunter!" The Shameless Cat looked completely confident.
Yang Zhen stared at the Shameless Cat for a moment, then turned and left. "What are we waiting for? The Flower Countenance Mountain Sage of Saunter' is definitely going to cause trouble!"
